To set up your google [[#|account]], which will allow you to create your google docs for our assignments, please follow these [[#|steps]] below:
1) If you have not already set up a google [[#|account]], please visit http://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?hl=en&continue=http://www.google.com/. If you already have a google [[#|account]], simply log in.
2) To create a document sing in and select More from the tabs running along the top of your google screen. Scroll down and select Document. On the left hand side of the screen click on the box to "create new". A scroll down menu will appear where you should select "document". Then [[#|begin]] typing in this new document. To name your document go to the top left hand corner of the screen where it says "untitled document". Click on that and type in a name for your document.
3) To share your document with a partner (group assignment) click on the Share box in the top right hand corner of the screen. A "shared setting" screen will appear where you can enter the [[#|email address]] of your partner by typing it in the box titled "add people". Your partner will immediately receive an email inviting them to access the document. At that time they can click on the link, log in and access the document.
4) To post a URL to your Student Portfolio, click Share in the top right hand corner. The shared setting screen will appear. The first option listed will read Private and there will be the word change written with a blue [[#|underline]]. Click Change. Select Anyone with Link. That will make your link active when you post it in your student portfolio.
